Say what?!?! I go to bed and he’s at 234. I wake up to 406, and only 15 minutes later he’s reading 433?!
I am going to force myself to try to go back to bed for a couple hours (day off) to let the insulin work… force myself to not focus/worry on him… it’ll come down, it’ll come down… [mantra between my teeth] He’s eating, and just right now drinking too…
Seriously though. Why, cat, why? My cousin snuck him “a couple” hi-carb treats before bed last night (unwisely, but she was giving them to other cats and didn’t believe just a “couple” could make a difference (I have no idea how many he actually ate, she tends to say “a couple treats” and give four or five, or “a few” and it’s like a handful). Could that have had this much effect? Though I would think a food spike would be fading by morning, not rising. It may not have helped though; the graph looks like he nadired right when I last scanned him at ~11:30 PM, then spiked to about 330 or so a little after midnight, took a quick dive back down to about 260 at 2 AM (+8), then hit a rocket ship to the moon at around 3 AM (+9). Appears he just kept going up from there. There’s nothing on his graph low enough for him to bounce from. He was running in the mid 200s without problems even on 1 unit, and now he’s on 1.25. I saw some pinks that were probably NDW over the last couple of days, but no actual hard bounces. But what happened in the wee hours of the morning…?
